Private eyes using drones to nab scammers & cheating spouses
(New York Post): http://nypost.com/2014/07/13/private-eyes-using-drones-to-nab-scammers-cheating-spouses/
"The Federal Aviation Administration deems it illegal to fly them
for commercial use, including film and television. But since a
federal judge dismissed a $10,000 fine against a commercial drone
user in March, many businesses are going ahead and flying them
anyway. A lot of PIs bought drones [after the ruling], Triggs
said. But before you use a drone, youre calling everyone you know
just to be sure. PIs are also using drones to catch cheating
spouses. Matthew Seifer recently pretended to test-fly a drone in
Central Park. He was actually recording a husband fooling around
with a female coworker from 100 feet away."

Perhaps not a great idea to be quoted publicly admitting that you're
breaking federal law.
